Heads up! This post may contain compensated links which means I get a small tip for telling you about awesome stuff I love!🤘
There’s power in being able to maintain inner peace in a divided, chaotic world.
Personal power.
And manifestation power.
Knowing how to transmute negative energy into positive energy — especially online, in social media communities — is the difference between being part of the problem or part of the solution.
If you’re not aware of the impact of your energy when you post or engage online, you could lose followers. Lose friends. Piss off, family. Damage your reputation, or even the reputation of your business.
After 8 years running an e-commerce brand, followed by 9 years managing social media for online education companies, I’ve seen firsthand how people’s digital energy can make or break their success.
I’ve watched creators go viral for all the wrong reasons, burn out under backlash, and lose everything because they reacted instead of reflecting.
And I’ve also seen the opposite — badass witches who learned to stay centered, use psychology wisely, and magnetize opportunities simply by mastering their energetic presence online.
I’ve lived both sides — the impulsive, reactive version of me who burned bridges in 2016, and the grounded creator who now uses emotional regulation and persuasion psychology as tools for manifestation.
So today, I’m going to show you how to channel your rage instead of reacting, how to transmute your energy into influence, and how to turn calm confidence into the ultimate manifestation power!

What does ‘transmute energy’ mean?
To “transmute energy” means to consciously change the emotional or energetic state you’re in, especially when it’s negative, into something constructive, creative, or high-vibrational.
Here’s what that looks like in practice:
- Emotionally: Turning anger into motivation. Turning jealousy into inspiration. Turning fear into clarity.
- Spiritually: Shifting your vibration from resentment or defensiveness to compassion, curiosity, or purpose.
- Practically: Instead of firing off a reactive post, you pause, breathe, and create something meaningful. A story, a teaching, a message that uplifts rather than adds to the noise online.
It comes from both alchemy (the transformation of base material into gold) and psychology (emotional regulation and reframing).
In essence, you’re doing inner alchemy.
You’re using awareness, breath, and intention to transform raw, chaotic emotion into power that serves you and others.
Understanding how to transmute energy can transform your entire life.
What’s better for manifesting the life that you want:
Adding to the divisive and negative mud-fighting online? Or staying calm. And praying/sending compassion for everyone who feels emotional pain and anger right now?
We gain strength when we withhold our instinctive reactions (or keep them within our most private circles!), but we express what we believe is for both humanity’s highest good and for our own good.
This energy radiates from every post we create online.
It ripples out online through people, into the world.
And it has consequences.
I learned this the hard way…
Before I understood the power of energy transmutation, I struggled to feel inner peace, manifest money – hell, even to lose weight!
When you hold anger in or you try to manage or minimize it, it comes out in subconscious acts of self-sabotage.
You’ll find it difficult or impossible to achieve your goals when your conscious mind and subconscious mind are not working together.
For example, you’ll choose to watch The B In Apartment 23 again instead of making another video for your YouTube channel.
Or you’ll guzzle down a bottle of shiraz the night before you planned to hit the gym.
Everything feels uphill. Three steps forward, two steps back!
But what can happen once you learn how to transmute energy…
Once you address subconscious thoughts and emotions…
Is that it’s going to make the changes you want to make in your life feel effortless. Easy. And aligned AF!
This has been a long journey for me personally.
It starts back in 2016 when the political division truly began back in my home country, the US. (I moved to Melbourne, Australia 25 years ago, TF!)
Everything got crazy online with Trump’s first campaign, the rise of MAGA, digital cults, and people spreading misinformation.
I did not understand how to FEEL my outrage within my body.
Feeling emotion and knowing you’re feeling an emotion are two different things. You can’t release emotion intellectually or from just venting it out.
Because emotion is held inside your body.
Emotions are a physical thing, though we’re not taught that, are we?
We’re told they are just in our heads, right? It’s BS.
So I did not know what to DO with my anger at idiots who couldn’t see that Trump was a clinical narcissist and a hateful POS, or the chemtrail conspiracy theorists, or the QAnon digital cultists.
I posted anything according to my whims…
And I pissed off a lot of people.
Lost many friends and acquaintances.
Cut ties with family.
I had that mindset many people have, where I believed, ”If we can’t agree, then just GTFO, I don’t want anything to do with you.”
And that IS what we may need to do sometimes, right? Some people are so deeply biased that all the logic or pleading in the world will not change them.
So getting away from them is maybe all that we can do…
All we have energy for.
”Fuck that guy!” we say, and just like that, we flame-torch bridges with people who once held entire chapters of our lives.
But now I don’t want to ‘agree to disagree’ anymore.
I want to persuade.
Influence.
To understand WHY people think the way they do and why they hold values so different to my own.
And whether to challenge them or to accept that they just are where they are….whether that be in a digital cult or just lost in confusion, fear, or uncertainty.
These days, I am non-reactive. Unflappable. Calm. Curious.
And a total reverse stick of dynamite online.
When negative energy comes my way, I quell it.
I now know how to own it, feel it, and re-fn-direct it.
You can learn how to hold onto your inner peace AND your manifestation power.
When you know how to transmute energy, you know how to turn ”WTAF?!” into clarity, influence, and action.
And the good news is, all it takes is good old-fashioned study and practice.
Both intellectually and in an embodied way.
For example, learning how thoughts and emotions play out in your nervous system, then using physical practices like meditation or somatic exercise to feel them within your body.
I believe that learning how to regulate your nervous system is one of the most underrated, CRITICAL business skills that you can have.
You can learn to recognize exactly how people are triggering you and why you’re feeling triggered. And with that understanding, you gain the ability to reverse the negative impact it would have had on you into re-channeled, positive persuasion.
Psychological heuristics can be studied.
There are formulas for learning how to persuade.
People think and behave in patterns.
Patterns can be studied and understood.
You are a powerful being capable of powerful influence.
Which means you also have a choice every time you log on:
To add fuel to the fire…
OR
To be the person who quietly drops a different kind of kindling.
Like curiosity, a question, a story, or a calm fact.
Whenever you see people on social media who drop into a thread with something that resonates powerfully with the majority of readers, and everybody reacts, replies, and sometimes outright steals and reshares what that person has written, that’s often someone who gets the zeitgeist of the issue.
And not just ‘gets it’, but is able to give back to people what they are longing to hear.
What they were literally subconsciously seeking when they are popping online.
The feelings that people may not have given themselves permission to feel or to say. Or to think.
That’s influence.
If you want to manifest the life you crave, start treating your online energy like sacred work.
Manifestation isn’t magic without practice, right?
So each day when we engage with the world online, we have this amazing gift of being able to practice co-creating the reality that we’d prefer to see instead of the fucked-up reality we’d rather not have to see.
We have the privilege of digital agency.
We can either choose to abuse that with our outrage…
OR
We can reach out to people and make their day either better or worse.
Only one choice will ripple out into the world with our small but significant act of intentional impact.
So practice making everyone’s day awesome.
Start with one deliberate post, one private message, one small act of restraint that becomes a habit.
Try it with your haters, too. See what changes you can create.
A simple but powerful 5-step practice to transmute negative energy into positive energy online.
If you’re tired of the mud-fight, try this simple ritual before posting:
- When you feel anger coming on, take three deep breaths to center yourself.
- NAME the feeling honestly. What EXACTLY are you feeling?
- Locate WHERE in your body you’re feeling this emotion. If you’ve never done this before, you may think it’s odd to ”place” an emotion in your body. But emotions absolutely have different places where they reside.
- Ask: “Will this heal or harm? Will this open a mind or shut it?” If the honest answer is “harm,” tuck it away (or save it for a private circle where you and your BFF’s can cackle at it together!). And if the answer is “open,” then post away.
- Write your message as if the person most resistant to you is standing right in front of you. As if you can smell their shampoo and hear their breath. How would you say it then?
Chances are, that version will move people more and cost you less..
Persuasion isn’t about shoving your truth into someone else.
It’s about learning the language they hear, meeting them where they are, and inviting them, gently, to walk a little closer to your side of seeing things.
Key word here: inviting.
This is how you can not only transmute negative energy into positive energy, but literally help heal people with your words and good intentions.
In this way, energy transmutation is the ability to translate your values into something someone else can understand without feeling attacked.
We don’t have to agree on everything to change the world.
We just have to be brave enough to choose influence over outrage, curiosity over certainty, and connection over annihilation of our enemies.
That’s how movements are born.
And that’s how lives, including yours, get remade through influence and persuasion.
Because you are no longer wrecking your nervous system when you go online and post willy-nilly…
You’re staying conscious of your energetic interactions and the emotions you are experiencing…
And that you are creating.🪄
This helps you stay positive, able to amplify your gratitude for the lessons you’re learning in life, and thus maintain your manifestation power.
It’s a Win-Win way to live in a fucked-up world!🤘
